Problem description:

You want to kill a job started by a task handler (parallel execution of tasks) with a keep-alive flag. Or you want to add more jobs.

Solution:

Use the functionality in job groups.

Here you can see the job history and currently running jobs.

If you want to kill a job - the BG job will finish as it will dump, the current task will be aborted and no new task will be started. After you kill the job, you can see the flag, but it could take some time to stop the job.

When the job will terminate, you can see the updated status

Functionality stop jobs - the job will be running until the current task will be finished. Then it will not start a new task, so the job will be finish also in SM37. Flags and statuses work the same as killing the jobs.
